This study found that GFRα2 influences cell size but not survival or target innervation of Ret-positive low-threshold mechanoreceptors in mouse dorsal root ganglia, differing from its role in nonpeptidergic nociceptors.

This study observed that electrical stimulation of specific mechanoreceptive afferents in the orofacial region can evoke sensations consistent with their response properties, while others may require multiple afferents to access perceptual levels.

This abstract catalogs resources from the American Society of Plastic Surgeons but presents no research findings.

This study demonstrates that neural stem cells in the adult vertebrate brain coordinate their division decisions using delayed local feedback mechanisms, involving Notch-mediated inhibition and dispersion effects, to maintain population homeostasis.

This study reported that novel kainate derivatives, especially ZCZ90, maintained potency in affecting proprioceptive sensory organ firing, aiding future receptor studies for potential treatment innovations.

In this study, researchers found that simple hair clipping in mice induced dynamic plasticity and axogenesis in skin sensory axons, linked to follicular activation and HGF signaling.

This study observed a high degree of plasticity in somatosensory axons innervating Merkel cells in mouse skin, finding that both axons and Merkel cells underwent dynamic remodeling, with their interactions influencing axonal branching and maturation.

This study found that Sox9 plays a critical role in maintaining radial glial progenitor cells and regulates the timing of their generation of upper-layer cortical neurons.

This study by Pérez-Oliva et al. explored how Mahogunin Ring Finger-1 (MGRN1) affects melanocortin-1 receptor (MC1R) signaling, suggesting that MGRN1 competitively inhibits Gαs binding to MC1R, influencing pigment production.

In this study, researchers observed a high degree of plasticity in somatosensory axons innervating Merkel cells in adult mouse skin, revealing that both epithelial-neural crosstalk and intrinsic neural mechanisms contribute to axonal patterning and remodeling during epithelial homeostasis.

This study in adult mice found that somatosensory axons innervating Merkel cells in the skin are highly plastic, with significant remodeling in response to epithelial turnover, and that Merkel cells play a role in limiting axonal branching and promoting their maturation.

This study found that in adult mouse skin, somatosensory axon plasticity is highly dynamic and influenced by epithelial-neural crosstalk and intrinsic neural mechanisms.

In this study, highly dynamic remodeling was observed in mouse somatosensory axons and Merkel cells, indicating that epithelial-neural interactions help maintain homeostatic remodeling, with additional intrinsic neural mechanisms contributing to axonal plasticity.

This study identified a novel phase of stem cell quiescence, GAlert, in mice, regulated by mTORC1, that primes stem cells for injury response.

This study found that inhibiting neurosteroidogenesis affected GABA A receptor-mediated synaptic inhibition in immature rats but not in adults, suggesting age-dependent modulation of synaptic strength in the spinal dorsal horn.

This study reports that overexpressing the BMP antagonist noggin in mice inhibits eyelid opening by reducing apoptosis and delaying cell differentiation in the eyelid epithelium.

This review explores how adaptive changes in cerebellar and vestibular subsystems may contribute to balance control, noting cellular mechanisms involved, but presents no new clinical findings.

In this study, researchers observed that knocking out KCNQ3 in mice increased firing frequencies in response to stimuli, particularly at slow mechanical indentation velocities, indicating a role in mechanosensory neuron sensitivity.

This study found that in SAMP8 mice, phenotypic changes in outer hair cells or the stria vascularis, possibly due to oxidative deficiencies, may predict variability in age-related hearing loss before outer hair cell loss occurs.

In this study, researchers found that after reducing GABAergic inhibition in rats' auditory midbrain, the brain quickly compensates by increasing local neurosteroid synthesis to maintain balance in neural circuits.
